25.8.2016 15:01:14 CEST | Business Wire | Press release
Amber Road (NYSE: AMBR), a leading provider of global trade management solutions, today announced that Trek Bikes, a major bicycle and cycling product manufacturer and distributor, has selected its Trade Automation solution to lower landed costs and manage global trade.
Trek bicycles and cycling products are sold through 5,000 independently-owned retail locations in over 90 countries across North and South America, Europe, and Asia.
Looking to automate its global supply chain, shipping, and product classification processes, Trek Bikes selected Amber Road’s cloud-based Trade Automation solution, which is expected to provide Trek with a return on their investment within just three years by lowering many costs associated with logistics and trade operations .
Trek especially needed a unified platform for visibility into its supply chain milestone activities to combat high demurrage and detention fees. Companies routinely incur these fees when they are unable to carefully monitor cargo arrival or in-transit cycle times. Amber Road’s solution will help manage these events and decrease Trek Bikes’ costs.
“Trek looks forward to reducing reliance on expedited courier shipments, lowering freight expenses, and reducing manual efforts, while more effectively managing landed costs through its partnership with Amber Road,” said Roger Gierhart, Vice President of Supply Chain at Trek Bikes.
Trek anticipates improved supplier productivity, coordination, and management of confirmed orders throughout the purchasing cycle with Amber Road’s supplier portal . With increased supply chain visibility , the company expects to lower expedited freight costs, minimize in-transit inventories, reduce detention and demurrage costs, and shorten transit times. By centralizing ocean rate procurement , Trek can easily comparison shop, gaining control of air and ocean freight costs as well as allowing for order and container consolidation.
Using Amber Road’s Global Product Master , Trek will gain access to accurate classification information through a centralized data repository to support supply chain decisions. The company will also reduce costs by automating the ISF filing process.
“We applaud Trek’s commitment to streamlining its supply chain and trade compliance processes with one centralized global trade management solution,” said Jim Preuninger, Chief Executive Officer of Amber Road. “We look forward to helping them lower logistics costs and expand their global business.”

Forrester: Three Years Into GenAI, Enterprises Are Still Chasing Its True Transformative Value2.4.2026 16:00:00 CEST | Press release
Low AI fluency, uneven adoption, and marginal productivity gains are limiting enterprise-scale impact According to Forrester’s (Nasdaq: FORR) latest report, Accelerate Your AI Voyage, most enterprises are struggling to turn growing AI adoption and investment into measurable business impact. One of the key factors holding businesses back is low artificial intelligence quotient (AIQ) — Forrester’s measure of AI aptitude — with many employees lacking a clear understanding of how to use AI. Other barriers include an overemphasis on productivity-focused use cases, difficulty measuring impact, and siloed adoption within individual functions. While these challenges can leave firms frozen in doubt or indecision, the wait-and-see approach to AI adoption is no longer viable. To unlock AI’s full potential, organizations need to focus on four key areas: Define the business outcomes and success metrics for what they want AI to achieve; identify specific use cases for AI deployment aligned to those
